The Belles of Canterbury

'The Belles of Canterbury' is a one-act play written by Anna Bird Stewart. Interestingly, the play was designed entirely to be played by women and young girls—more precisely, eleven of them, for the following roles: a freshman, a sophomore, a junior, and a senior, the wife of Bath, prioress, first nun, second nun, Emily, Hippolyta, and Griselda. This short play is set entirely in a classroom, making it a perfect choice for a school production.
